Jacob got me a build a bear for my birthday! I was kind of excited that he wanted to get me a build a bear for me. We went to the Clackamas Bulid a Bear and we picked out a bear and walked over to the stuffing station. The guy asked me if I wanted my bear soft or hard. I told him I wanted it soft and he had me step on this pedal thingy while he stuffed the bear. There is a heart that you put inside the bear after it had been stuffed. I made jacob do this next part since he was the one that was giving me the bear. The guy made him take the heart and jump and down with it to give the bear some energy and then take the heart and kiss it on both sides then put it in the bear. The guy then sewed my bear up and we took him to the fluffing station to get him to be really soft. We were looking at all of the outfits that I could get him and I chose the Mariner outfit but Jacob wanted to get the Seahawks one. I was like no way, I don't like football. I am not going to put a football jersey on my bear. We also had to make a birth certificate for my bear and I decided to name him Snuggles. He was made with love by my hot studly boyfriend!!
Also, for my birthday, Jacob took me to the beach. At first I wanted to go to Cannon Beach because I thought that it would be less busy but then I thought that there really isn't much to do at Cannon Beach, so we decided that we would go to Seaside. He came and picked me up at about 8:30 am and headed down there. There was just a couple of bad spots on the banfield and beaverton but it was pretty much smooth sailing from there. It started to sprinkle on the way but I was really hoping and praying that it wouldn't be raining when we got to the beach. We got to Seaside and of course it was sprinkling. We went and looked at all of the restaurants to see which one we wanted to eat at for lunch. We ended up going to a place calle Doogers. I got a BLT and he got something else(I don't remember what it was called). We sat there for a while and talked, waiting and hoping that the rain would stop soon. It didn't so left and headed for the arcade place. We were there for quite a while playing all sorts of games. The last few times we went to places where they had a racing game, we played and I kcked his booty at it, so I was joking with him before we started to race, asking if he was ready for me to kick his butt. I was pretty much ahead of him for the whole race until he passed me at the last second and won. :( Little booger! I will be getting him back for that! It finally stopped raining for a bit, so we decided to go down to the beach while we could and walk along the ocean. I wanted to write our names in the sand and take a picture of it. Not long after we did that, it started to rain again!! Frustrating! We didn't leave right away when it started to rain, so we get soaking wet. We went back to the car, change our jackets. Luckily, I brought two. I should have just brought my columbia jacket, then I wouldn't have to worry about being so wet!!! After that, we went and looked around in the stores and window shopped. I wanted to get an elephant ear, so we stopped in a little shop and got one. We were thinking about going on teh tilt-a-whirl and bumper cars but decided against that. After that, we headed down to Cannon Beach to eat dinner at Moe's. We were lucky and got to have a window seat. Once we got to Cannon Beach, the sun came out. I am so gald that the sun finally came out and it wasn't raining all day long! It was nice sitting by the window with the sun shining out on the ocean while we were eating dinner. I was hoping to maybe see some whales come up out of the water, but no such luck. After dinner, we decided to walk along the beach while the sun was still out. I was really nice. Wr stayed there until it was time to go back home. I am grateful for my boyfriend and what he does for me. I had such a great time going to the beach with him!!
On Sunday, Jacob came with me to church. We went to Coffee's On before 2nd service and got bagels and cream cheeese and some drinks. After 2nd Service, somebody came up to us and started to ask questions about us. Asking us to tell him about ourselves, an important point in our christian walk. He then proceeded to ask us how long we have been married. I thought that that was pretty funny. After church, we met up at my house and headed out to Sweet Tomatoes. My mom, dad, Julie, Nathan, and Jaden went to go pick up Jenny and Gabe while Jacob and I started to Sweet Tomatoes. We decided to stop at Clackamas Town Center and grab some more stuff for my bear and he needed to grab a new pair of khakis for work. Then we went to ST and had lunch with the fam. After lunch, we went to Crown Point and Latorell Falls. It was a really nice day to go to the falls. We stayed for quite a while at the falls and walked. We headed back to my house, to eat dinner. We had steak, corn on the cob, baked beans, and pasta salad. It was a really nice dinner. After dinner, we played a game. My favorite thing to do!
Today, Jacob took me down to get my haircut. We went to The Old Spagetti Factory beforehand. We got to sit by a window and look at the river outside. We wanted to get right when it opened because we figured the food would be fresh. Only a few more people were there with us. We pretty much got seated right away. (That was nice) We stayed there until we had to go to get my haircut. I got my haircut pretty short. I told Colleen that I don't want to have bangs anymore so I am trying to grow them out. I like my haircut though I didn't like the way she styled it afterwards. But overall, I am happy with it. We went downtown after my haircut and saw License to Wed at the theatre in Pioneer Place. It was a pretty good movie. Kinda funny, kinda not. We haven't seen a good movie lately. None of the movies we have seen have been good. It is kind of disappointing! We went to American Eagle after the movie. When we went to Clackamas on Sunday, I saw a polo that I really liked for Jacob. They didn't have his size there so we thought that we would try this one to see if they had it. They didn't have the color that I liked but he did get another polo that looks really good on him.
